With a Landlord's Consent to Lease Assignment, landlords and property managers can give formal approval to tenants who wish to exit their lease agreement and transfer it to a new tenant before the rental term is complete.
The assignor is typically the current tenant, while the assignee becomes the new tenant. On the other hand, a lease transfer refers to transferring the leasehold interest from the current tenant (transferor) to a new tenant (transferee). In a lease transfer, the existing tenant is completely replaced by the new tenant.
Once the landlord's consent has been obtained, the tenant and assignee can enter into a deed of assignment to transfer the lease to the assignee. If the lease is registered at the Land Registry the assignee will then need to register the assignment at the Land Registry.
